Abstract：
Outdoor programs involving recreational physical challenges are becoming increasingly popular for training and development purposes among adults, but rigorous studies investigating their effectiveness remain scarce. A randomized controlled trial was conducted to evaluate the effects of an outdoor adventure-based program on measures of self-efficacy, resilience, risk-taking propensity, and perceived stress. Participants were randomly assigned either to an intervention condition (half-day high ropes course) or a wait-list control group. Measures were taken at baseline and four days post-intervention and on the day to measure intervention perceptions. Significant increases in self-efficacy and risk-taking propensity were observed for the intervention arm compared to the control arm. Greater intervention engagement and affective valence ratings were associated with self-efficacy change. These findings highlight the practical relevance of adventure-based experiences for organizations and educational institutions seeking to enhance young adults\' self-confidence. Additionally, they emphasize the importance of tailoring interventions to individual needs and ensuring positive participant experiences to achieve desired outcomes.
摘要：
涉及娱乐性身体挑战的户外项目在成年人中越来越受欢迎，用于训练和发展目的，但是严格的研究调查它们的有效性仍然很少。进行了一项随机对照试验，以评估基于户外探险的计划对自我效能感的影响。弹性，冒险倾向，和感知的压力。参与者被随机分配到干预条件（半天高绳索课程）或等待名单对照组。在基线和干预后四天以及当天采取措施以测量干预感知。与对照组相比，干预组的自我效能感和冒险倾向显着增加。更大的干预参与度和情感效价评分与自我效能感变化相关。研究结果强调了基于冒险的经验对于寻求增强年轻人自信心的组织和教育机构的实际相关性。此外,他们强调了根据个人需求量身定制干预措施的重要性，并确保积极的参与者体验以实现预期结果。
